~ In the Shadow of the Rock

On the way…

… between school and my car, I have the opportunity to stop (or at least slow down), enjoy the space to change gears and offer praise and thanksgiving, before I get in the car and start the long drive north. This time between is generally called transitioning. And I feel so very fortunate to have been provided with such a beautiful space in the middle of the city.

The Belltown P-Patch

Don’t you think my walk-through transition is beautiful?

Today, during one of our breaks, I walked up Elliott Avenue a couple of blocks and just stood and listened and then I looked around and took in the city where I am being pushed and pulled and challenged and stretched and given the privilege of change and transformation.

And truly it is a privilege. I am so very grateful for this blessing, although at times I just want to pack my things and walk away and leave. Sometimes the challenge seems to just be too much.

But, I know better. For this is surely the place where God has called me for this time and the growth He is producing in my life.

And so, I say Thank You, Lord!

I am blessed! Here’s more proof ~ taken Wednesday as I walked to my car after class.

Welcome!

I love community! A sharing community is my hope for this blog. I hope you find something here in my writing that is just for you.

My heart is for us, for the richness of BEing and receiving community, of experiencing Life. In faith I offer an invitation to you... Come, taste the goodness of the Lord. Enter into God's Presence and listen as the Spirit speaks directly to your heart. Even in our deepest hurts and darkest despair, Holy Trinity is present and longs for our fellowship and presence in return.

I would love to hear from you. I am interested in your thoughts and your responses to what you read and what you hear in what you read. Share your ideas and experiences. Who knows, perhaps others will have similar stories to share as well.
